Thats just bad reasoning, you can't say that all the Americans in your area are slobs (including you, if you say you are an American like them), I doubt you know all the people in your area.

SUVs should definitely be taxed extra. What a public nuisance! They are dangerous to other drivers in all situations. I'm thinking of starting a custom mud spraying shop so that SUVs can look like they have actually been off-road.
Well there was an argument here recently concerning SUVs - or maybe someone just pointing out the hypocracy in a letter to the paper. It was pointed out that according to emition standards - SUVS are considered trucks - therefore they don't follow the gas mileage requirements that cars do - yet they don't pay truck tolls on the Turnpike and Parkway - they pay the car rate.

They're either a truck or a car - they're not both.

I do agree they are a public nuisance - and I give any of my friends a hard time who either own one or is thinking of buying one.

Can we start a mud fight now, ooh, ooh, can we, huh, huh, huh? Geez, JD stop taking everything literally and personally. Just cos someone doesn't like McDs or SUVs doesn't mean that you need to personally respond to EVERY SINGLE ONE. Eh. And people, if you're gonna attack America, at least whine about something worthwhile, ie, not obesity and McDonalds.

*Pulls out dynamite, lights said dynamite*

Now the Kyoto treaty, or the cut funding to the family planning on the other hand....

I'm going to resond when I want to respond - don't read them if you don't want to. And I don't like McDonalds - not because of the lame reasons that are usually pointed out - just that I don't like their food. And if you read my posts - you'd know that I hate SUVs too.

Also we already talked about the Kyoto treay and the Family Planning thing - neither of which are in America's best interest. The money that was going to the family planning has gone to other US sponsored internation family planning benefits. So it's still going to a lot of people in Africa that need it - my tax money just isn't going through the UN to get there.

i would like to apologise for being rude and offfensive, even if the offended are nitpickety, i still apologise.
last night was weird, i got some very bad news, got in a couple of fights(verbally), was made fun of and kicked around (literally) and was basically having a rough day. i was mad. and i let it carry over to the moot, where my problems have no stage. im sorry. my fault, i deleted what i wrote because i didn't think before i wrote it.
thank you for understanding.

This thread can only further ill feelings on the part of some American posters and it is our intention as staff to see that the board runs smoothly and all members are kept happy. This thread has the potential to be disruptive and offensive. Therefore, in the best interest of the board and its members, I am closing it.
